I downloaded Python 2.5 yesterday and am having a problem with the included 
IDLE. If I launch IDLE by double-clicking, it shows up in the task bar, then 
immediately goes away. I see no windows, menus, etc. for the program. If I type 
IDLE at the command line, IDLE 1.2 launches with no problem. The icon in the 
task bar appears to be Python Launcher in that case, not IDLE.

If I launch the IDLE.app from MacPython 2.4 by double-clicking, it launches 
IDLE 1.1.3 with no problems.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Is IDLE.app broken under MacPython 2.5? While 
I can launch it from terminal, it is definitely more convenient to just 
double-click. I am using IDLE because I have been working my way through the 
O'Reilly Learning Python book at a glacial pace over the last year or more and 
it is nice to have a simple Python-aware interactive editor.
